    Why become a Subscribing Member?

    • In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.
    • We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).
    • Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

What makes 2700 such an important number with Lycoming engines, and propellers for that matter?
I think the engine would make more HP at 2800?
Would the prop make more thrust? What is the point of diminishing returns?
Also, granted the 3 blade props look great, but do they suffer in overall performance to a 2 blade?
What prop RPM's do the constant speed unlimited competitors use?
